Title: Bow Contest is over.
Post by: HaMeR on January 18, 2011, 09:23:12 AM
Thanks to everybody that participated in the contest. We didn't have a lot of entries this year but we had enough to give away those fine collaboration calls from BillsCustomCalls & HuntnCarve. Hopefully this coming year will bring better rewards for us all & more folks can get out to chase the elusive big racked white tail.

It appears the Biggest Buck award goes to none other than our very own SARAH!!!!!!!!!!!  She sure has the correct handle for her style of hunting. She is lightning quick on the trigger & those deer never know what hit em!! Way to go Sarah & Congratulations!!!
You will need to get in touch with FinNFur,,Jim,, & let him know how you want your prize money. BassPro crad, Cabelas card, or cash. BillsCustomCalls will also need your mailing address if he doesn't already have it.

Our Best Photo contest will be awarded by vote. We only have 2 entries so this should be easy enough.
BillsCustomCalls doe.

  What's the reason I can't vote for the top pic :shrug:.  I mean shouldn't it be up for consideration too :shrug:.  Not that I think it's better quality or anything  :nono:.

Biggest buck takes one prize & Best Pic takes the other. This way there are 2 winners.

I agree with you tho. Sarah is a cute girl & would easily win both.  :laf: :laf:

Congrats on all three of the entries for nice deer. :yoyo:

I'd like to vote for Sarah's pic too Glen. I'm much happier to see her with a deer instead of Semps ugly Mug :alscalls:

But he's right Barry, we decided way before it began that we werent going to allow one participant run with everything.

Congrats Sarah for another Monster harvest, and claiming the biggest rack here. :yoyo: :yoyo:

I also want to make sure I give a huge thank you to Dave (HuntnCarve) and Bills Custom Calls, for the outstanding work they have put into our prize calls, and then donated them to the cause. Very much appreciated you guys :congrats:

Also a very big thank you to all the members that donate money, hold auctions, and sell things to contribute money to the FnF Funds (http://forum.finsandfur.net/index.php?topic=3026.0). Without you folks, these contests would not even be possible. :wink:

And last, but certainly not least. Thanks goes out to HaMeR for manning this whole event, freeing me up enough time to pretend I'm to busy to do it myself :laf: Thanks Glen :wink:

I wanted to tell you that my dad was showing me and my friend these pictures and told us that the one deer climbed the ladder and hung itself and my friend really believed him. We later told him that it really didn't happen.  :alscalls: :alscalls: :alscalls: Dante

I was showing the boys these pics and told them the guy that sent this in said that doe jjust climbed the ladder and hung herself.  10 min later I heard Dante's friend talking about it and realized he actually took it as a fact, so I had to tell him it really didn't happen that way.   He slept over and this morning he asked if we ever saw a pack of wolves out back.  :shock2:

I appreciate the votes, guys (and gals).   I really thought with the contest going over 4 months that we would get more than 3 entries.   Maybe that "ugly mug" of mine scared them away, Jim.   :eyebrownod:   

That nice buck of Sarah's was very hard to top for biggest rack.  Congratulations to Sarah! :congrats:

Many thanks to HuntnCarve Dave and to BillsCustomCalls for the donated calls and to FnF for putting up the loot.  And thanks to HaMeR for organizing the whole thing.   :congrats:

:laf: :laf:  Good one!!


You're Welcome Semp. I was hoping for more entries as well. My archery time was spent trying to get Diane a deer. It didn't happen but I got a kick out of watching Diane mature as a deer hunter. I set behind her in the blind & her shoulders don't move nearly as much when we have deer moving thru. I thought she was gonna hyper ventilate the 1st time we were out 2 years ago & had a small buck at 45yds.   :laf: :laf:
